observe Minerva nerveless in Nirvana

“Oh say can you see in the dark you
observe Minerva nerveless in Nirvana because
Zeus rides reindeer thru Bethlehem’s blue sky.
It’s Buddha sits in Mary’s belly waving Kuan
Yin’s white hand at the Yang-tze that Mao sees,
tonge of Kali licking Krishna’s soft blue lips.”

Allen Ginsberg, Holy Ghost on the Nod over the Body of Bliss, from Planet News, 1961–1967.
